The Gender Knot - Walking on Eggshells

Walking on Eggshells

12/10/18 • 36 min

The Gender Knot
Nas often feels like she’s walking on eggshells on this show; she has to be honest with men but also keep them engaged and not annoy them so much that they tune out of the show, and these conversations, altogether. Dan and Nas try to figure out this delicate balance.
We also hear more from Kasia Urbaniak, the former Taoist Nun, former Dominatrix and women’s power coach who told us how women can ask for what they want a few weeks ago. Kasia fills us in on the ways in which women silence each other in a bid to survive and how telling a man the truth is an act of love.
Guest: Kasia Urbaniak , women’s power and influence coach and founder of The Academy https://www.kasiaurbaniak.com/
Host and producer: Nas aka Nastaran Tavakoli-Far
Co-host: Daniel Carroll
Co-producers: Sam Baker and Jonathan Blackwell

The Nitty Gritty

You’ll have noticed we’ve been changing the direction of the podcast over the past few weeks, with there being fewer abstract explorations of ideas and more delving into the nitty gritty of how men and women can actually better relate in these confusing times.
As such we’ll have having more audience participation, so send us your thoughts.
Men’s coach David Lion helps us to help an audience member with a dilemma, and tells us about his online summit called Evolving Men, which is all about helping men figure out how to live more wholeheartedly. The summit features exclusive talks from 25 expert men and runs until 8th December.
And we also delve back into the topic that keeps on coming up: disenfranchised men.

Meltdowns

Why are meltdowns gendered? Do we ever talk of men having meltdowns? If not then why not, and what does this mean about our expectations of how women and men can express themselves? We get some help from our friends at the hit podcast A Gay and a NonGay to figure this out.
We’re off to rest over the festive season and will be back on 7th January 2019 – speak to you then.
